A warm, energetic European coming-of-age adventure full of cross-cultural encounters and romantic uncertainty, carrying a similarly playful sense of travel as personal transformation.

Why this pick
A more deadpan, reflective road movie, but its episodic travel and accumulated encounters make romance feel contingent, surprising and quietly transformative.
05

01 / THE STORY
At the beginning of his summer holiday, a somewhat naive trainee teacher Daniel (Moritz Bleibtreu) buys a ring from a stall run by a neighbor, the aspiring artist and street vendor Juli (in German, "Juli" would be not only the month July but also a common nickname for someone named "Julia"; Christiane Paul). The ring bears a Maya civilization sun symbol, which, according to Juli, has the power to lead him to the woman of his dreams, whom he will recognise by a similar sun symbol. As Juli has the ring's counterpart, and as she is in love with him, she invites Daniel to a party that evening, hoping that they will meet.
